Non woven fabric is a type of fiber product that combines fibers through physical or chemical methods without the need for spinning. It has the characteristics of being soft, breathable, waterproof, wear-resistant, non-toxic, and non irritating, and is therefore widely used in fields such as medical, home textiles, shoes and hats, luggage, agriculture, automobiles, and building materials.
Reasons for easy wrinkling
However, a major characteristic of non-woven fabrics during use is their tendency to wrinkle. This is mainly determined by the structural characteristics of non-woven fabrics. The main structure of non-woven fabrics is formed by interweaving fibers through physical or chemical methods, rather than being determined by the textile structure between fibers, as in textiles.
Firstly, the degree of fiber interweaving in non-woven fabrics is relatively low. Compared to textiles, the fibers of non-woven fabrics are relatively loosely bonded, which makes their surface relatively susceptible to deformation by external forces, resulting in wrinkling. In addition, the fibers of non-woven fabrics are often irregular, with problems such as uneven length and interweaving degree, which also increases the possibility of wrinkling of non-woven fabrics.
Secondly, the fiber stability of non-woven fabrics is poor. Fiber stability refers to the ability of fibers to resist deformation and is also an important indicator of textile wrinkle resistance. Due to the low degree of fiber interweaving in non-woven fabrics, the bonding between fibers is not strong enough, which leads to fiber slippage and displacement, resulting in deformation and wrinkling of the entire structure of the non-woven fabric.
In addition, non-woven fabrics are also easily affected by heat and moisture during the manufacturing process. Fibers are prone to softening and deformation under high temperature conditions, resulting in wrinkling of non-woven fabrics. In addition, in humid environments, fibers absorb moisture and expand, which affects the shape stability of non-woven fabrics and further increases the possibility of wrinkling.
What to pay attention to
Given the wrinkle prone nature of non-woven fabrics, it is important to pay attention to some key points when using and maintaining non-woven fabric products. Firstly, try to avoid friction with sharp objects to avoid damaging the fiber structure. Secondly, when cleaning, it is important to choose an appropriate water temperature and detergent to avoid strong mechanical friction and drying. In addition, when drying, avoid direct sunlight and high temperature drying. Choose a well ventilated and moderate temperature environment for drying, or use low-temperature drying.
Although non-woven fabrics are prone to wrinkling, this does not affect their advantages and wide applications in other areas. The wrinkling problem can be effectively solved through reasonable use and maintenance measures. In addition, in some specific application areas, such as home textiles, luggage, etc., the wrinkling problem of non-woven fabrics has a relatively small impact, so it does not affect its practicality and market demand.
Conclusion
In summary, the wrinkling of non-woven fabrics is mainly caused by various factors such as low degree of fiber interweaving, poor fiber stability, and the influence of heat and moisture. Although non-woven fabrics are prone to wrinkling, through reasonable use and maintenance measures, the occurrence of wrinkling problems can be effectively reduced, fully leveraging the advantages and application value of non-woven fabrics in various fields.
